Intercom Configuration - Direct Mode
Configuring two intercoms in Client-Server mode (Direct Mode - No PC required)
This procedure configures two Intercoms to connect to each other. This connection can be on
a LAN, WAN or across the Internet.
To configure intercoms to connect to TalkMaster™, please see Intercom Configuration -
TalkMaster Clients.
From the main TalkMaster™ screen, select the menu Admin
Configure Intercoms. The
system will scan the local network segment using a UDP Broadcast to find all IP Intercoms.
New Intercoms will show up with IP addresses of zero.
The Icom ID displayed on the
screen will match the ID# printed on the back of the Intercom.
If you have intercoms located in a different network segment, you may not find them since
many routers filter out UDP Broadcasts. You can either configure these intercoms on the
current network segment prior to installing them on the desired network or you can install a
copy of TalkMaster in the other network segment to configure your intercoms. You may also
refer to the TalkMaster installation CD for instructions on installing the UBAM™ software which
will allow you to configure units across different networks.
Determine which of the two intercoms will be the Server-Peer and which will be the Client.
